In the sleepwalking scene (Act V Scene 1) she goes back to bed when she dreams or imagines that she hears knocking at the gate. "To bed; to bed. There's knocking at the gate. Come, come, come, come, give me your hand. What's done cannot be undone. To be, to bed, to bed."
Duncan showed both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth a complete respect!
Get the guards drunk and stab the king in his bed. It's not a complicated plan.
Lady Macbeth made the plan. The grooms who were to be guarding the king were to be made so drunk that they would not wake. Macbeth was to go into Duncan's rooms, steal the guards' daggers, kill Duncan with them, wipe the blood on the grooms so they would look guilty and leave the daggers there, and return to Lady Macbeth after which they were to return to bed.
In Act 2, Scene 1 of Macbeth, the king, Duncan, is in a pleasant and gracious mood. He comments on the beauty of Macbeth's castle and expresses gratitude towards Lady Macbeth for hosting him.
Lady Macbeth helped her husband carry out the assassination of their sovereign, King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040]. She did so by helping in the planning and in the framing of the two royal guards. She was the one who suggested her giving the guards too much of drugged drinks. She was the one who kept Macbeth on track when he wavered. She was the one who told Macbeth that the murder would best be done with the King vulnerable, helpless and defenseless from having dined and gotten ready for bed. She was the one who planted the daggers back on the bodies of the guards, to frame them for the royal killing.

The two (2) royal grooms are the individuals whom Lady Macbeth frames for the murder of King Duncan (d. August 14, 1040) in the play "Macbeth" by William Shakespeare (Baptzied April 26, 1564 - April 23, 1616).Specifically, the killing of the king and of his guards takes place in Act II Scene II. Macbeth (d. August 15, 1057) expertly wields a knife against all three. The guards are sleeping, but he decides that he can frame them for a murder charge against which they will have no opportunity to defend themselves. That is exactly his wife's thought on the matter as well.
