After the death of the second great Khan there was no mongol empire there were empires controlled by different sets of mongols.
So to say that there was a "mongol empire" in the strictest sense is wrong because there was no one central authority. There existed mongol governments but not A mongol government
Kublai Khan consolidated the empire in 1264, defeating his relatives and other rivals. I have no problem admitting after Kublai Khan's death, the empire more or less fell apart.

With the death of Mongke, civil war ensued among his sons and nephews. Kublai Khan, son of Mongke, came out victorious and gained domination over the Mongol empire in 1264. He consolidated his empire in eastern china and tried invading south east Asia but was not very successful in it. Russia was annexed and there were gains in the middle east.
Kublai died in 1294. With his death the Mongol empire disintegrated into four states and started to decline.
Kublai khan only ruled in asia and had very little influence with the golden horde and the IIkhanate with the latter he had some influence but no real direct rule especially after his brother died. With the former he had direct war so there was no consolidation of the mongol empire
