Inside the Hastinapura Palace:
"So what new tricks is Duryodhana upto, Vidura?" questioned Bhishma. "Where has he taken the Five brothers to?""To the banks of the Ganga. For a day of swimming and fun in the waters" replied Vidura
"You know I don't trust that boy...Vidura...He is not happy with the arrival of his cousins...so why this sudden show of affection and cordiality? Vidura...I have told you have to be their guardian"
Vidura was silent
Bhishma spoke more forcefully "Vidura...There is more to this than meets the eye...why don't you have more information on this Vidura?"
Vidura took a deep breath " Venerable Taat, a sinister plot has been hatched by Duryodhana
Bhishma looked grave
Vidura continued "Taat, Duryodhana wants to poison Bhima. He has asked the cooks to mix poison in Bhima's food. My spies have reported this to me. And I have, after having threatened and warned the cooks, asked the only to mix a dose of sleeping medicine in Bhima's food.
"And what will Duryodhan do next?"
"I am not sure Taat, but I have, convinced Duryodhana to shift the venue of their picnic to Kushan Ganga area...
"Why So?"
"Taat, that area is under the protection of King Aryaka...the King of nagas who also happens to be the maternal grandfather of the Pandavas. I have notified him about the Pandavas's presence in that area. His soldiers will be on guard."
"Very well Vidura...make sure no harm befalls Bhima..."
"Be assured Taat. Bhima will only return stronger"
