No início de Game of Thrones Season 8 Episode 5, we see the following conversation take place:

[DOOR OPENS]

VARYS: And? Nothing?

GIRL: She won't eat.

VARYS: We'll try again at supper.

GIRL: I think they're watching me.

VARYS: Who?

GIRL: Her soldiers.

VARYS: Of course they are. That's their job. What have I told you, Martha? The greater the risk, the greater the reward. Go on.They'll be missing you in the kitchen.

[DOOR CLOSES]

TRY WHAT EXACTLY?!

I didn't think much of it the first time I saw the episode (hardly noticed in fact), but the second time, it felt like Varys was trying to poison Dany from the kind of conversation going on. Was he asking the girl to check on Dany to see if she is able to return to normalcy and eat or was he trying to kill her? Did Daenerys know about this (the attempt to murder, not the spreading of the secrets)?

Concern or Murder?

It is heavily implied he was trying to murder her.

Note the part of the conversation where he asks Martha what he's told her and she replies:

Martha: The greater the risk, the greater the reward.

If all they were trying to do was feed Dany there would be no risk and she wouldn't be concerned about the soldiers watching her because it is their job.

On top of that it was already implied in the previous episode that Varys was going to attempt to kill her in his conversation with Tyrion. You've got to remember the facial expressions each character gives the other in the below conversation too.

Varys: You know where my loyalty stands. You know I will never betray the realm.

Tyrion: What is the realm? A vast continent, home to millions of people, most of whom don't care who sits on the Iron Throne.

Varys: Millions of people, many of whom will die if the wrong person sits on that throne. We don't know their names, but they're just as real as you and I. They deserve to live. They deserve food for their children. I will act in their interest, no matter the personal cost.

Tyrion: So, what happens to her? Please. Don't.

Varys: I've spoken as honestly as I can. Each of us has a choice to make. I pray we choose wisely.
