Modernisation of Three Old DDG Classes: 956, 051B, 052B

I think they will be retired from combat service as planned, because experienced crew is kinda bottleneck for PLAN compared to rapid induction of new warships in the coming decade.

You are right, both ships will be decommissioned from combat duty but not shelved. They might be transferred to Dalian Naval Academy (like #517) for training, used in OPFOR ("Blue Team") or as testbed for new weapons (like #519).
