Mongols practiced a hands-off approach during the Yoke, never meddled with religion, art or anything like that as long as dues were paid, and princes and nobles remained overwhelmingly Russian. Turkic words did get into Russian language, but mostly through trade. You could say that Ivan IV, Peter I, Stalin or Putin represent Mongol cultural heritage but that's just empty rhetoric.
