Macbeth is trying to protect Lady Macbeth from the guilt of killing more people.

Explanation:

This question concerns the famous tragic play by William Shakespeare, "Macbeth". In his thirst for power, Macbeth becomes a murderer so that he climb up to the throne. His wife, Lady Macbeth, being even more ambitious than he is, is an important accomplice.

However, as we can see in the passage, at some point Macbeth tries to keep his wife ignorant of his plans. He now intends to kill Banquo, his best friend, but does not want her to know about it until after he has committed the murder. He wishes to protect her from the guilt of killing more people - Banquo is Macbeth's second victim.
