Taxing the Rainbow

After every storm the tax collector measures rainbows and sends invoices for light refraction on royal land. Peasants riot with prisms; the collector hires mercenaries with mirrored shields. Find the legal loophole, bribe the archivist of weather law, or split the rainbow before debts become executions.
