Best Answer

Lady Macbeth was devious and sneaky. She welcomed King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040] into Inverness Castle where she and Macbeth made their home. She acted the good hostess. But the entire time she was planning and setting into motion plans that would deprive the King and his two royal guards of their lives. Her husband temporarily was dissuaded from the plot by his obligations as beneficiary, cousin, host, and subject; and by the king's reputation and the opinions of others. But such wasn't the case with his wife. Nothing derailed her from her ambitions: not the responsibilities of beneficence, kinship, reception, or Scotsmanship. Not even diamonds from the King stopped her.
