Arrive outside the Temple of Ire and you'll find several soldiers and the captain trying to keep the situation under control:

Captain Zugnor: "Everyone! Clear the streets and go home! Let the king's soldiers deal with this!"

Approach him:

"Back away, citizen! We have enough to deal with as it is.
My soldiers can't do their job with all you civilians getting under foot."
I'm here to help rescue the hostages.
"Just because you carry a weapon doesn't mean you know how to use it. And as you can see, I already have more amateur warriors volunteering to help than I can handle.
Why don't you just stand back and leave this to the professionals?"
At least tell me what you know about the situation.
"By the king's arse, you're annoying! I should toss you in a cell, but I'm a little busy at the moment.
All right, listen. A group approached the temple. I didn't think anything of it until they drew their weapons and rushed inside."
Any other way inside besides the locked door?
"Look, I just got back from a tour in Daggerfall and I'm still trying to figure this city out. It's a damn maze!
I heard there might be a way back in, but the soldiers I sent to look for it haven't reported in yet."
[Intimidate] The king sent me. If you don't want him mad at you, I'd suggest you let me help.
"Right. And I'm High-King Emeric's long-lost brother!
I know what you're trying to do. You're playing a dangerous game, outsider. I hope you realize that."
Forge-Mother Alga will verify my story.
"Very well, I'll check with the forge-mother. But if you've lied to me, I'll hunt you down, toss you in a cell, and throw away the key!
We think there's a back entrance up the stairs near the Mages Guild. I sent soldiers to find it."

If you have completed the main quest, you can also say:

I defeated Molag Bal. I think I can handle this.
"Right. I think I heard about you. Probably a load of horker dung, but what do I know?
Still, if even half the stories about you are true, I'd be glad to have your help."
How can I get inside the temple?
"I think there's a back entrance up the stairs near the Mages Guild. I sent some soldiers to investigate but they haven't reported in yet.
If they haven't barred that door, too, you have a chance. Just don't get the hostages killed, all right?"

If you convinced him to tell you about the back entrance, he'll add:

"Like I said, if you're trying to find another way in, check around back. The stairs near the Mages Guild are supposed to lead to the temple's rear entrance."

Otherwise, he'll only say:

"Now move along before I get really angry."
