The visitation of Banquo's ghost has so unsettled him that he is eager to find out what information the witches can give him. Already, in his paranoia, he has established a spy system to check up on his nobles. If he can learn more about who is plotting against him, he thinks, he can act with alacrity.
She smiled and welcomed him because she didn't want him to suspect anything. She told Macbeth, "Look like the innocent flower, but be the serpent under it." This means to look innocent but be devious on the inside. She and her husband are already planning Duncan's death when she welcomes him to the castle. She is deceiving him into feeling confident. He actually greets her with a beautiful diamond as a gift, so it's really pretty evil of her to murder him!
In Act 2 Scene 2, Lady Macbeth (b. c. 1015) went back to the royal guest room with murder weapons.
Specifically, Macbeth's Lady went to the part of Inverness Castle where King Duncan I (d. August 14, 1040) was staying overnight with his two royal chamberlains. The King and the guards already had been killed. Lady Macbeth left the daggers with the corpses of the two royal guards. This was done to frame them for their sovereign's murder. Her husband, Macbeth (c. 1014 - August 15, 1057), had been so unhinged by the bloodied corpses and crime scene that he had walked away with the murder weapons on his person.
Well, he has just thrown a party at which the ghost of his dead friend has appeared, and only to him. Time was, when the brains were out, the person would die, and that would be the end. But now, apparently, they arrive at your party and push you from your stool. The world is now all full of supernatural and inexplicable events. Who does Macbeth know who knows something about the supernatural and about the future? The witches, of course, so he plans to visit them again, for some explanation of what is going on.
Encouragement, a confidence boost, to check if his position is to be threatened further now he's gotten rid of Banquo.
Macbeth, yet guards were framed and Lady Macbeth was the plotter!

Macbeth wrote Lady Macbeth a letter describing his encounter with the witches. Lady Macbeth reads it out at the beginning of Act I Scene 5
Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] and his Lady [b. c. 1015] planned to blame the two royal guards for the untimely death of King Duncan I [d. August 14, 1040] of Scotland. Lady Macbeth was supposed to serve the guards drugged drinks, to keep them from protecting their sovereign. Macbeth was supposed to kill the sleeping, unarmed King and then the passed out, defenseless guards. The bloodied murder weapons were supposed to be left at the crime scene with the bloodied corpses. The crime scene was supposed to tell a tale of a king killed by his drunken guards and avenged by his outraged host. And that was what happened and how the royal guest chamber was made to look, in Act 2 Scene 2 of the Shakespearean play.
In Act 2 Scene 1, Macbeth is onstage and Lady Macbeth is not. I think Macbeth in Act 1 Scene 5 is heading back to his castle called "Inverness" to talk to his wife (Lady Macbeth) about what happened with the witches and to come back from the war that just happened. Possibly you were thinking of Act 2 Scene 2 where she is talking and he is stabbing Duncan.

Lady Macbeth gets them drunk, then frames them for the murder of Duncan.
Yes, and she sleeptalks too.

She has drugged their possets, their late night drinks or nightcaps as we would now say.

In Act 3, Scene 1 of Macbeth, Macbeth and Lady Macbeth exhibit a mixture of apprehension, ambition, and a growing sense of paranoia. Macbeth is increasingly consumed by his guilt and fear of losing power, while Lady Macbeth struggles to maintain control over their destiny despite their mounting troubles.
In Act 2 Scene 1, Macbeth is onstage and Lady Macbeth is not.

Lady Macbeth pushes Macbeth to kill Duncan in act 1. She is stronger and more manly than Macbeth.
