When Lady Macbeth speaks to Macbeth about the ornament of life, she's talking about the crown of Scotland. Macbeth wanted very much to be the king.

Number of kids of lady lady Macbeth and Macbeth?

Historically speaking, Lady Macbeth had a son by her first husband Gillecomlan called Lulach, who was adopted by his stepfather Macbeth. She and Macbeth had no children of their own. Although it was Lulach who became king after Macbeth, Shakespeare considered it dramatically unnecessary to include this fact in his play and so he does not appear. The idea that Lady M had been a mother makes sense of her line "I have given suck and know how tender 'tis to love the babe who milks me."

Who do Macbeth and Lady Macbeth kill in the play?

The Macbeth family victim list is: King Duncan, his two chamberlains, Macbeth's fellow general Banquo, Lady Macduff and her children. Eventually Lady Macbeth kills herself. Macbeth also kills young Siward towards the end and McDonald along with young siward during the battle when the forest "walks" up to the castle. the above is not exactly true - Macbeth kills - the traitorous Macdonwald, (mentioned in 1.2). Duncan, his two sleeping chamberlains, and young Siward. That's it. He hires murderers to kill Banquo and Fleance (they only get Banquo), as well as to kill Macduff and his family (they only get her son, and presumably, Lady Macduff - but in the text she exits before being killed) There is no evidence that Lady Macbeth kills herself, other than a line that she "tis thought, by self and violent hands took off her life"


Who places the daggers with the murdered servants in Macbeth?

Macduff greets Macbeth's announcement that he has killed the grooms with the line "Wherefore did you so?" Macduff seems to think that was a peculiar thing to do, since he asks why Macbeth did it. Macbeth has a ready answer, but then in the next scene Macduff chooses not to attend Macbeth's coronation, so maybe he was not convinced by the answer.

Did Lady Macbeth want Macbeth to kill Banquo?

Lady Macbeth wasn't in on her husband's plans to kill Banquo. When she asked what his plans 'of dreadful note' [Act 3 Scene 2 Line 44] were, he didn't want her to know the specifics. But most likely yes, she would have wanted Macbeth to kill Banquo. Earlier in their conversation, she commented that Banquo and his son Fleance were mortal [and therefore killable?].
